The William Allen White Children's Book Awards are given yearly to the best book for 3rd - 5th grade and 6th - 8th grade. In April the winners are chosen by Kansas students in these grades. At our school we will vote on the 3rd - 5th grade choices. There are nine books on the master list. You must read at least two of them before you can vote, but you can only vote for one book.
